Default Missing Shims & Perch On Yella Terra Ultralite 1.7's

So I bought some YT Ultralites on the forums here recently and they didn't come with the perch's or any shims as I've seen on other rockers (my old HS's). This isn't correct is it? If it isn't, where can I get replacements? I need them ASAP for assembling my motor.

See the link for the parts that come with them. Did you buy these used? I don't understand why they would be missing. Link

Yella Terra has a US contact either in Mississippi or Louisianna. They may be able to help you with the missing parts. The pedestals are the most important part, the shims can be bought elsewhere and once you set up the wipe you will know what thickness you need. I bought my shims at McMaster-Carr because I needed thicker then provided by YT.

Original shim thickness is 0.047 as a starter.
